The junior now has 107 career points, with one year of eligibility remaining.

Coach Serratore has been named the CHA Coach of the Year for the third consecutive season and for the fifth time of his career. Bemidji’s bench boss has led the Beavers to their third consecutive CHA regular-season championship with a record of 14-3-1, while amassing an overall record of 23-8-3.
